ButterKnife findByID method is deprecated in version 8.8.0

Question

Hi I have just updated ButterKnife library version 8.7.0 to 8.8.0

compile \'com.jakewharton:butterknife:8.8.0\'
annotationProcessor \'com.jakewharton:butter         


        

Answer 1

Per the change log:

Deprecate the findById methods. Compile against API 26 and use the normal findViewById for the same functionality.

Android'sfindViewById has been updated to have the same functionality in API 26 which recently became stable, thus allowing Butter Knife's version to be deprecated and removed in the forthcoming v9.0.
